Answer:

The intermediate to felsic eruptions may  be usually moderately to highly explosive

Explanation:

  • Felsic lavas are hot, high in silica and volatiles, and have a high viscosity of fluid matter. They are thick and heavy and resistance movements.  
  • They thus represent the shielded nature of volcanoes etc. Fluid lava flow, tephra, lapilli, and volcanic bombs.
  • Felsic magma is rich in feldspar, and silica as opposed to mafic magma which is rich in magnesium and iron.
  • Felsic magma is usually acidic.
  • As a result of the high intensity of volcanic eruptions, the lava is sticky and dark in color also it's bulky, etc. An example of Mount Saint Helens that erupted destroying both property and human life.

Umnica [9.8K]

The correct answer is - d. shield volcanoes.

The Hawaiian volcanoes are volcanoes that fall into the category of the shield volcanoes. They are slightly dome shaped volcanoes, spread out over a very large area, are not steep, and are volcanoes that tend to not have explosive eruptions as their magma is usually high in silica content.

The volcanoes on Hawaii are volcanoes that have formed over a hot spot, which means that they are not formed at the boundary of the tectonic plates, but instead, they are formed in the middle of the plate.

Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea are actually the biggest volcanoes in the world in the present day.

Explain how solar energy and wind energy are generated?​
nalin [4]

Answer:

Solar energy is created by nuclear fusion that takes place in the sun. Fusion occurs when protons of hydrogen atoms violently collide in the sun's core and fuse to create a helium atom. This process, known as a PP (proton-proton) chain reaction, emits an enormous amount of energy.1

Explanation:

wind energy, form of solar energy that is produced by the movement of air relative to Earth's surface. This form of energy is generated by the uneven heating of Earth's surface by the Sun and is modified by Earth's rotation and surface topography.
